It’s so loaded with tools that you could say that this owl is “all business in the front and all party in the back.”

Berries for All

HootSuite also takes advantage of the mobile device’s functionality by giving BlackBerry fans the tools to update both Facebook and Twitter. Plus, the software is both backward and forward compatible to allow the maximum amount of BlackBerry fans to enjoy social media on the go.

Indeed, the public beta version dropping today will please multiple BlackBerry users with binaries for OS 4.2.1, 4.5, 4.6, 5.0, and 6.0 — and it’s even touch-enabled where possible.

Oh, and did we mention it’s free? So all that’s left is to go download HootSuite Blackberry now. Not berry-fied? All good, just stay tuned for more mobile fest news for an owl that fits your handset.

Owls for You

… And don’t forget to send us a postcard! Just complete the sentence “HootSuite helps me…” and mail to us. We’ll choose some faves and send Hootkits full of limited edition stickers (including Owly rocking a blue tooth earpiece with the ‘berry) and other owl goodness. Check out the details at the bottom of our mobile fest announcement.

Beta Thanks

BlackBerry enthusiasts have been loud and well… loud, in letting us know of their eagerness to get their hands on the release of a HootSuite version just for them. We listened and even brought some intrepid testers on-board for the private beta release over the last few months – thanks for your help.
